2022) You become so immersed in Thief that when someone comes up behind you and calls out your name, you jump 3 feet out of your chair and nearly have a heart attack
2023) You cringe in disgust whenever you see one of those Brinks home security systems commercials on TV

2024) You read a sign that says "Beware of vicious dog", and you think to yourself "why don't those idiots get a burrick instead?"

Whilst taking a break from playing thief because your eyes have started bleeding again, you jump between the various thief forums waiting for people to post replies to topics that you actually have no interest in, just to get a vaguely thiefy 'fix'

2039) You're at a party at the house of some relatives. The party sucks so you just crumple into a seat... until you notice a diamond ring. An evil expression appears on your face as you remember that this type of ring gives 100 loot, and your right hand with its fingers streched out greedily approaches the ring, you're about to say "Since I'm in here I might as well pickup something for myself .
Someone walks up behind you. Scared half to death you throw an imaginary flashbomb at their feet and bonk them with your glass of juice. When they look back puzzled at you, a cloud of dust covers your hasty retreat... whilst holding the ring.

2040) Your uncle is on a visit at your house. As usual you're playing TDP, ( NOTE: You're very fond of Hammerites and their specific speech and there's an inverted red hammer on the side of your door so no "novices" will bother you whilst playing )
When your cousin silently opens the door, sneaks up on you and starts inspecting your Thief CD carcass you brutally rip it out of his hands and shout: WHAT ART THOU DOING?! SAAYYYY WHO ART THOU!!! AHHHHHH!! A SPY! MAY THE HAMMER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS FALL HEAVENLY UPON THEE!!! and then call your pet cat and say: SWING WITH ME BROTHER! AND END THIS VILLAIN's LIFE!!!!!!!!!

2044) You realise that you stand to one side as you open a door so that if there's someone on the other side they won't see you straight away

2045) You realise that you also stand to on side as you open any box or other kind of lid, in case it's trapped

2047) You think that ultimate ghost mode is too wimpy, so you invent a new style of play: the "I'm so addicted to this game that I actually think I'm Garrett mode". In this mode, whatever damage Garrett takes, you must inflict upon yourself. Garrett gets whacked by a Hammerite? Take that hammer out of your tool chest and whack yourself on the head as hard as you can. Garrett takes falling damage? You must jump from the exact same height that he fell from (and no bending your knees when you land!) Garrett gets SHAS? You must go to Wendy's and eat 8 double cheddar lovers bacon cheeseburgers so that you, too, have a heart attack.

2049. You buy a plethora of arrows, mines and potions, find a black outfit (upon which you write the name GARROTTE in big black letters), rip out your eye and replace it with a metal one, build a time machine which allows you to reach the Thief world, knock out Garrett, then you stroll over to the nearest Keeper compound and shout "Did somebody say Master Thief??!!!)

2051) You have the uncanny knack to smash all banners, posters and just everything that hangs on the wall to see whether there are any secret passages hidden behind them.

2052) You gave up that habit because of your experience with something that looked like a secret switch to you but was in fact some Mechanist thingy called a socket.

2053) You creep on the top of the Eiffel tower on midnight with a chicken egg, jump down, and just before you hit the ground, you throw the egg under your feet, saying "Now I KNOW I am a master thief!"

2054) You actually land softly on a confused chicken.

2055) You have cut yourself and went to the chemist's to ask for a healing potion.

2056) You fall out of the window, breaking your leg, but still look happy thinking "had I played on Expert, I'd be dead. Thanks, Builder!"

2057) You are afraid to look out of the window due to high poly counts.
